A khuṭbah delivered in Belfast, N. Ireland, March '05. Allāh mentions, “Allāh wishes to make clear [what is lawful and what is unlawful] to you, and to show you the ways of those before you, and to accept your repentance, and Allāh is the All-­Knower, All-­Wise. Allāh wishes to accept your repentance, but those who follow their lusts, wish that you should deviate tremendously away from the right path. Allāh wishes to lighten [the burden] for you, and man was created weak.” [Sūrah al-Nisāʾ, 4:26-27]
